Knowing how contentious the COVID vaccine issue is, part of me would rather write about something else. The discussion and news on this topic seems so one-sided, though, I feel I should speak up.
#1: Vaccine Makers Are Immune from Liability
The only industry in the world that bears no liability for injuries or deaths resulting from their products are vaccine manufacturers. Established in 1986 with the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act and reinforced by the PREP Act, vaccine makers cannot be sued, even if they are shown to be negligent. If a company is not willing to stand behind their product, I am not taking a chance on their product.
#2: The Checkered Past of the Vaccine Companies
The four major companies making COVID vaccines either have never brought a vaccine to market before COVID (Moderna); are serial felons (Pfi zer and Astra Zeneca); or both (Johnson & Johnson).
Moderna had been trying to “Modernize our RNA”—thus the company name—for years, but had never successfully brought any product to market. How nice (for them) to get a major cash infusion from the government to keep trying. All other major vaccine makers have paid out tens of billions of dollars in damages for other products they brought to market. If drug companies willfully choose to put harmful products on the market when they can be sued, why would we trust any product for which they have no liability?
#3: The Ugly History of Attempts at Coronavirus Vaccines
In the 1960s, when animal trials were not yet required, scientists attempted to make a Respiratory Syncytial Virus vaccine for infants. When exposed to the natural virus, 80% of the vaccinated infants required hospitalization, and two of them died. For the past 20 years, all attempts to create coronavirus (common cold) vaccines have ended in failure. Animals in those trials got sick and many died, just like those babies in the 1960s, which is why we did not have a vaccine as of 2020. Nor has the mRNA gene-therapy technology been safely brought to market, despite the billions of dollars in government funding.
#4: “Data Gaps” Submitted to FDA by Vaccine Makers
When vaccine makers applied for Emergency Use Authorization, among the many “data gaps” reported was that nothing in their trials even suggests the vaccines’ safety or effi cacy regarding: • Anyone younger than 18 or older than 55 • Pregnant or lactating women • Auto-immune conditions • Immuno-compromised individuals • Transmission of COVID, preventing mortality from COVID, or duration of protection from COVID
#5: No Access to Raw Data from the Trials
Would you like to see the raw data that produced the “90% and 95% effective” claims touted in the news? Me too. But they won’t let us see that data. As the BMJ says, something about the effi cacy claims smells awfully funny...
#6: No Informed Consent
What most people receiving the vaccine don’t know is that these products are still in clinical trials, so anyone getting the shot is now part of an experiment. Those who do not take it, like me, are part of the “control group.” Time will tell how this experiment works out.
But if the vaccines are causing harm, wouldn’t we be seeing that all over the news? Well, if the adverse events reporting system was working, maybe things would be different.
#7: Under-Reporting of Adverse Reactions and Death
According to a study done by Harvard, fewer than 1% of all adverse reactions to vaccines are actually submitted to the National Vaccine Adverse Events Reports System (VAERS). While the problems with VAERS have not been fi xed (as discussed in a letter to the CDC), at the time this was written, “VAERS data shows 118,902 reports of adverse events following COVID vaccines, including 3,544 deaths and 12,619 serious injuries between Dec. 14, 2020, and April 23, 2021.” If those numbers only represent 1% of the total adverse reactions, that equates to somewhere around 354,400 deaths and a ridiculous number of adverse reactions to date.
#8: The Vaccines Do Not Stop Transmission nor Infection
Wait, what? Aren’t these vaccines supposed to be what we’ve been waiting for to “go back to normal”?
Nope. That’s why we’re getting these confl icting messages about continuing to practice social distancing and wear masks after we get the vaccine. They were not designed to stop infection nor transmission; they are meant to lower your symptoms. It can’t stop us from spreading the virus, nor can it stop the virus from infecting us once exposed. To get the vaccine is to accept all the risk of these experimental products when at best it might simply lower symptoms?
So the next logical question: If the vaccine reduces symptoms, anyone who gets it might not even know they’re sick and be more likely to spread the virus…right?
#9: The Overall Death Rate from COVID
According to CDC numbers, COVID has a 99.74% survival rate. Why would I take a risk on an experimental product that doesn’t stop infection or transmission to help me overcome a cold that has a 0.26% chance of killing me?
But what about the 500,000 plus deaths? That’s alarming, right?
#10: The Bloated COVID Death Numbers
Never in the history of death certifi cates has our own government changed how deaths are reported. So, why are we now reporting everyone who dies with COVID in their body as having died of COVID, rather than blaming the co-morbidities that actually took their life? Until COVID, coronaviruses were never listed as the primary cause of death when someone died of heart disease, cancer, auto-immune conditions, or other health problem.
To bloat the number even more, the WHO and CDC changed their guidelines so that those suspected, but never confi rmed of having COVID are included in the numbers seen on TV daily. According to CDC numbers, only 6% of deaths attributed to COVID are instances where COVID seems to be the only issue. Even if you ignore the bloating, the 0.26% fatality rate is in line with the viral death rate that circles the planet every year.

#11: Fauci Owns Moderna Vaccine Patents
Thanks to the Bayh-Dole Act, government workers are allowed to fi le patents on any research they do with taxpayer funding. Tony Fauci owns over 1,000 patents, including those being used on the Moderna vaccine… for which he approved government funding. In fact, the NIH claims joint ownership of Moderna’s vaccine—which appears a clear confl ict of interest.
#12: The Virus Continues to Mutate
Not only does the virus continue to mutate, but according to vaccine developer Geert Vanden Bossche, it’s mutating about every ten hours. How in the world are we going to keep creating vaccines to keep up with that level of mutation? We’re not. Given that natural immunity has never ultimately failed humanity, why do we suddenly not trust it? And why, if I ask questions like these, will my thoughts be deleted from all major social media platforms?
#13: Censorship and the Absence of Scientifi c Debate
I can’t help but get snarky here, so humor me.
How did you enjoy all those debates broadcast on every major news channel? Wasn’t it great hearing from the best minds in medicine, virology, epidemiology, economics, and vaccinology as they debated all the restrictions before they were imposed? Wasn’t it great seeing health offi cials grill the vaccine makers with tough questions about their products?
Oh, you didn’t see those debates? Because they never happened.
What happened instead was heavy-handed censorship of all but one narrative. Mark Zuckerberg can question vaccine safety, but I can’t? When did the fi rst amendment become a suggestion? With so much at stake, why are we fed only one narrative? If highly credentialed scientists have differing opinions, I want to hear their arguments and make up my own mind.
#14: The World’s Leading Vaccinologist Sounds the Alarm
When someone who is very pro-vaccine, who has spent his entire career overseeing the development of vaccines, is shouting from the mountaintops that we have a major problem, we should listen. Geert Vanden Bossche explains how COVID vaccines may be accelerating the virus’ ability to mutate and become more deadly and creating vaccine-resistant viruses, and why we may be looking at a mass casualty event in the not-so-distant future. He also addresses some tough questions and if half of what he says comes true, these vaccines could be the worst invention of all time. If you don’t like his science, take it up with him. I’m just the messenger. But I can also speak to COVID personally.
#15: I Already Had COVID
I didn’t enjoy it. It was a nasty cold for two days, but I survived. It appears—as it always has—that I have natural, life-long immunity... something not likely to wear off in a few months, unlike the vaccine. In my body, and my household, COVID is over. In fact, now that I’ve had it, there is evidence the COVID vaccine might actually be more dangerous for me. That is not a risk I’m willing to take.
